Thanks Leah! We had one of those big felt boards when I was in kindergarten - I'd forgotten all about it!

When you make felt dolls - do the clothes just naturally stick to the dolls because it's all felt, or do you put velcro or something on to make them stick? -
That is beautiful!!! I love it! Looks like that precious baby does too! :cool1:

I use www.photobucket.com to store the pictures I want to share online. I just save the picture to my computer, and then upload it to photobucket. Then you can insert the code to have the picture put right into the message.

I made a macrame rainbow wall hanging once at Girl Scout camp. That's about as far from useful as it gets, LOL!

Last year, I made spiced mug mats for all my friends for Christmas. I found some nice wintery fabric (I used blue with white snowflakes) and cut it in 4x4 squares. Then I took some polyfill quilt batting and cut it into slightly smaller squares (3.75 x 3.75 or so).
I sandwiched them together (fabric, two layers of batting, and another piece of fabric), and stitched them together on three sides. Then I stuffed them with a bit of whole allspice, whole cloves, and broken pieces of cinnamon stick, and sewed up the fourth side. Cut it all around with pinking shears for a decorative touch and, voila! Spiced mug mats. Put a hot cup of tea on them and they smell heavenly!

Is anyone else having trouble with this link? I can't get the page to come up.

Thanks for the info - I'll try making some! -

Trader Joe's sells it too, for those who have that store in their area.

Even if MT doesn't need info, I'd sure like to have some - can you please post instructions? -
#35 - why oil? What's special about that that makes it disappear faster than the kind packed in water?
My Family's Cornbread Recipe
in In The Kitchen-The Heart Of Our Home

Cornbread in a skillet is fabulous - it gets a nice, sort of crispy outer texture. I heat a tablespoon or so of butter in mine in the oven while I'm mixing the batter, and then pour the batter right into the butter. So good...
